Stairway To Heaven Lyrics

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

I was estranged from you

Feel like a stranger to you

I let you go- felt like a danger to you

My life in shambles- I could ramble for hours

Addiction had me devoured

Put on a face to not come off as a coward

I

Ran from my problems

Took some years to combat my demons

Sat inside my head so long- I can still hear them screaming

I finally felt release when I got the courage to speak

In front of people that resembled my pain

I did so much just to change

Only reflecting on my past so I could learn from mistakes

Your father showed me who he was- and so we went separate ways

I'm sorry that it took so long to tell you this

But you deserve the truth

I held my mothers hand when she entered the upper room

And I fear that I'm due there soon

Laying in this bed- they got me breathing through a tube

I'm sending you this message in hopes that it gets to you

Just text me when you get it, I love you, talk to you soon

The stairway to heaven

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

The stairway to heaven

Stairway to heaven

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Stairway

I've had mixed feelings since I was seven

I lived with you- not knowing from you was where I was severed

Suffered in silence when thinking about my origin story

A bastard child that was passed around from New York to Georgia

I made some friends and made choices that I regretted

Bettered myself and stayed away from those that would behead me

Or so I thought

I've been trying to tackle this loss

Came away from a friendship and went to bury my aunt

I went to bury my mother and now I'm holding my heart in my hands

Got back to Topawa knowing that I won't see you again

Felt like a shell when I'm asked- How are you doing

What do I say? Do I lie to drive them away

Drove a wedge in-between us- for years didn't see your face

Driven towards affection- was driving myself insane

So I made myself a promise- I swore I would never break

That my son won't know the same pain- until I hit the stairway

The stairway to heaven

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Stairway to heaven

Stairway to heaven

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Stairway

My way

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Stairway

My way

Way up- way up high

Way up- way up high

Stairway
